Quick question does anyone have experience with getting an A8 GS transmission tune? About how much should it cost and lastly anyone have any recommendations for the NC/VA areas?

I've never heard of a transmission tune. Interested as these A8 transmissions are pretty clunky.
Total - $1,180
Add 200 more if you want the ECU tuned.
Highly recommend you reach out to BRC raceworks - LT platform specialist. His tuning made a night and day difference with my A8.
Also recommend you let him tune the car; you would be hard pressed to find a better tuner who knows more about these platforms anywhere, he is fair & honest.

if the trans is 17+ you also need to get the TCM unlocked. HPtuners provides this service for $200 if you mail it in.
you wont tune a trans tcu unless the engine ecu is also tuned since the trans calibrations are based off the torque produced by the engine. they go hand in hand with each other
4 credits for ecu 50$ each
2 credits for tcu. 50$ each
unlock by hp tuners 200$ plus whatever labor the shop charges to remove it ship it receive it and reinstall it
tune cost by tuner
